Site-specific prolapse surgery. I. Reliability and durability of native tissue paravaginal repair
TL;DR: Site-specific re-suture of torn native tissue has genuine curative potential and most of the long-term success was attributable to site-specific repair, rather than non-specific scar formation.

The Recidivism of Offenders Given Suspended Sentences: A Comparison with Full-Time Imprisonment
TL;DR: For offenders with no prior prison sentence, there was no statistically significant difference in re-offending between offenders who received a suspended sentence and those who had received a prison sentence as mentioned in this paper.

Mid wall fibrosis on CMR with late gadolinium enhancement may predict prognosis for LVAD and transplantation risk in patients with newly diagnosed dilated cardiomyopathy—preliminary observations from a high‐volume transplant centre
Jose V. Venero,Mark Doyle,Moneal Shah,Vikas K Rathi,June A. Yamrozik,Ronald B. Williams,Diane A Vido,Geetha Rayarao,Raymond L. Benza,Raymond L. Benza,Srinivas Murali,Srinivas Murali,Jerry Glass,Peter R. Olson,George Sokos,George Sokos,Robert W Biederman,Robert W Biederman +17 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that LGE has high prognostic value in primary DCM patients referred for possible transplantation/left ventricular assist device (LVAD) consideration and CMR imaging using late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) is investigated.

Mineral Metabolism, Mortality, and Morbidity in Maintenance Hemodialysis
Geoffrey A. Block,Preston S. Klassen,J. Michael Lazarus,Norma J. Ofsthun,Edmund G. Lowrie,Glenn M. Chertow +5 more
TL;DR: Hyperphosphatemia and hyperparathyroidism were significantly associated with all-cause, cardiovascular, and fracture-related hospitalization, and the population attributable risk percentage for disorders of mineral metabolism was 17.5%, owing largely to the high prevalence of hyperph phosphatemia.

Overall Survival and Updated Results for Sunitinib Compared With Interferon Alfa in Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma
Robert J. Motzer,Thomas E. Hutson,Piotr Tomczak,M. Dror Michaelson,Ronald M. Bukowski,Stéphane Oudard,Sylvie Negrier,Cezary Szczylik,Roberto Pili,Georg A. Bjarnason,Xavier Garcia-del-Muro,Jeffrey A. Sosman,Ewa Solska,George Wilding,John A. Thompson,Sindy T. Kim,Isan Chen,Xin Huang,Robert A. Figlin +18 more
TL;DR: Sunitinib demonstrates longer overall survival compared with IFN-alpha plus improvement in response and progression-free survival in the first-line treatment of patients with metastatic RCC, highlighting an improved prognosis in patients with RCC in the era of targeted therapy.

TL;DR: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery was not inferior to primary debulked surgery followed by chemotherapy as a treatment option for patients with bulky stage IIIC or IV ovarian carcinoma in this study.

Survival and Prognostic Stratification of 670 Patients With Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma
TL;DR: Five prognostic factors for predicting survival were identified and used to categorize patients with metastatic RCC into three risk groups, for which the median survival times were separated by 6 months or more.
